Hi all,
It's been a while since I had any finds worthy of posting. But I hit a street tearout Sunday morning and apparently beat Milco to the punch. They stripped about a block of early 1800s roadway down to the clay base, about 2 feet down.

First minute there I hit a 1907 IH. Not long after popped a pocket knife handle. Dont know why, but there were a lot of zincolns in the mix. But almost to the end of a 2 hour hunt I found part of a skeleton key, a ring with a few flakes of gold plating left, and a crusty no date IH. I also made the best 2 finds in the last 5 minutes. An 1875 IH encased in wet clay that came out almost as red and shiny as the day it was dropped.

The best find in my opinion was a token from H. Stanfield distillers. Took a bit or research, but found it's considered a CW token and dates from 1865-75. An auction listing from 2013 puts its value at $128. Best 2 hours spent this week! Thanks for reading, and HH!
